Make Hadoop 10x faster in 10 minutes

Mike Matchett, Senior Analyst at the Taneja Group provides an informative webinar titled “Make the Elephant Fly. How to make Hadoop 10x faster in 10 minutes”. Mike presents findings from his recent research about the performance of Hadoop jobs, and also interviews Nikita Ivanov, CTO of GridGain, about why in-memory solutions for Hadoop can make all the difference for big data success.

Together they explore what in-memory technologies do and how they work to speed up processing, how easy or hard they are to deploy in the data center, and what the net impact can be. They also cover commercial vs. open source options in the big data space, and what that means for the analytical community at large.

If you need to speed up your Hadoop applications, you won’t want to miss this important webinar.
